Rajasthan residents stuck in Georgia, appeal for govt help

A 61-member group from Rajasthan comprising 29 Chartered Accountants and their families, which was in Georgia to attend a programme, is stranded there due to widespread flight cancellations in the wake of the Israel-Iran conflict and has appealed for help from the Indian government.

The group had travelled to Georgia to attend a residential refresher course in the capital Tbilisi and were scheduled to return to India via Sharjah on June 13.

However, flight services were suspended due to escalating tensions, leaving the delegation stuck in Georgia.

Among the stranded are three members from Jaisalmer. One of them, Bhavik Bhatia posted a video appealing to the Indian government for immediate assistance.

He requested the intervention of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar for their safe evacuation. Their kin in Rajasthan have also expressed concern over their safety.
